8 days in Taipei Itinerary

Situated in a basin between two mountain ranges, Taipei appeals to tourists with its blend of Asian cultures, living side by side amidst Japanese-era mansions and Taoist temples.

Venture out of the city with trips to Keelung Harbor (in Zhongzheng District), Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street) (in Ruifang) and YehLiu Geopark (in Wanli). And it doesn't end there: get engrossed in the history at National Palace Museum, take a stroll through Ximending, pause for some photo ops at Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, and admire the sheer force of Shifen Waterfall.
